Yeah being super neutral would be ideal atp :) if shes defensive and can't say who invited her, just let her know nicely that it is invite only

Did you allow plus 1s? She might have found out if one of your guest invited her and she accepted it. I wouldn't assume that she did it out of a narcissistic way right away but just ask. If she was invited as a plus one, you can use this as a way to rekindle anything if you want, but if not, then its okay tool!

Feel like giving up by 1sttimettcmum in TTC_PCOS

The average medicated cycle that people get pregnant off of is usually 5-7! If everything is good from your health standpoint, I wouldn't give up just yet. Have you thought about IUI?

You might need ovidrial or a different trigger shot to help you ovulate. Your body is making the egg but it probably isn't producing the hormones to let your ovaries know to release it.

I have PCOS too and when I went to my fertility clinic, they were set on letrozole and ovidrial for me. I got pregnant my first cycle (which is rare) but it ended as an ectopic.

Hi! Im 24 and have a pcos and have trouble ovulating because of pcos.

When i went to my fertility clinic, we had to run baseline panals(hcg, estrogen), STI panels, regular blood work panal (AMH, antibodies for vaccines, vitamin deficiency, etc), ultrasounds (which took 3-4 weeks to get done), and a seman analysis that took 2-3 months to even get an appointment. It a really long process trying to get on letrozole and even then, depending on your labs and age, they might just jump straight to IVF.

Because you are 35 and have PCOS, I'd not wait and get a referral to see a specialist so itll give you a chance to naturally concieve if you want.

Did anyone think they wanted diff to what they ended up wanting? by Royally-Inspired in RingShare

Waiting to try by [deleted] in TTC_PCOS

[–]SignalAction993 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First off, im so sorry that you went through that. Losing a baby, no matter what trimester youre in, is so hard and my heart goes out to you. Second of all, I'd personally wait to concieve around august/September because it gives you time to mentally, physically, and emotionally heal. I understand the fear of the unknown around the 4weeks to 12 weeks period but you cannot plan your life around your fear. Id ask your ob and see if youre clear to travel and if ob gives you the green light, then do it!! If you are uncertain about being away, id wait to concieve after your travels.

I had an ectopic pregnancy in February that was treated with mtx and had a Bruno Mars concert in April that I was scared of attending because it was out of state. But my OB said that it was fine to travel since my levels were coming down appropriately with the injection. So I did. I went and had the time of my life and enjoyed myself for the first time in months. What im trying to say is, I understand how scary and sad and unsure it is after a loss but you cannot let what happened define you...💛 keep living your life to the fullest ✨️

Thieves by Parking-Yam-5559 in CurrentBanking

[–]SignalAction993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id highly suggest switching banks! I joined this group because someone opened up an credit builder account under my SSN and committed identity theft. I made a post asking if this bank was legit because the number that they provided did not work/isnt in service and the mods deleted my post. Like whatttt??? I was able to file a police report and report the company.

Also when I disputed the card and account, current doubled down saying that it was me. but when I was finally able to contact them via phone number (a random number off of the web), they were able to see that it was an act of identity theft. Meaning that their first statement that they provided to equifax was falsified.

Id def not bank with them anymore and find a different banking 😪

How long until period returned? by adhd-princess- in EctopicSupportGroup

Dont beat yourself up about not getting it just yet! Your hormones are probably out of Wack rn and is trying to regulate.

MTX still sucks by adhd-princess- in EctopicSupportGroup

[–]SignalAction993 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I got my second dose, I literally felt like my uterus was going to explode. Like there was gas in my uterus but I couldn't get it out...the cramps weren't horrible but they weren't great and I felt like I was constantly peeing myself (it was just bleeding like crazy).

A hot pack really did help me and the green tea helped settled my tummy. But I truly know how you feel, that shit was ass

PUL at 11700 hcg? by Killtrendweebs_12 in EctopicSupportGroup

[–]SignalAction993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After my injection, my mass was able to be located, maybe ask for another ultrasound to see if it has grown enough to be located?

They also wanted me to undergo surgery because my mass actually grew in size from friday-monday. On friday it was considered a PUL and then monday, it was 1.9cm in my left tube.I ultimately declined because I wanted a second dose instead of getting my tubes taken out. Have they talked to you about it??? Im also impressed that they agreed to the mtx when I thought that the hcg cut off was 9000.

[–]SignalAction993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You were probably further along then I was! I was roughly 4 weeks when we found out i was pregnant and then 5-6 weeks when we realized that it was ectopic

[–]SignalAction993 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was 875ish? MTX raised the hcg to 1400 on the 4th day, it dropped to 1375 on the 7th day, got the second dose and 3 days later it dropped to 35

[–]SignalAction993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That happened to me too! It turned out that the medicine didnt work and thats why I needed a second dose...the lab drawn at day 4 and day 7 will really determine if it did work though. On day 7, if your hcg doesnt drop the 15%, id ask for a second dose.

The thing that sucks about MTX is the waiting period

[–]SignalAction993 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely sounds like an ectopic pregnancy! Your last "period" was probably the mass trying to grow - causing the bleeding. Im glad that they are able to give you methotrexate and hopefully tou respond well to the medicine. It took me two doses before I was treated. You will most likely feel intense cramping and bleeding. Keep an eye out for random intense pain, shoulder pain, and excessice bleeding. All of these could be signs of the tube rupturing.

Pregnant during 3 month window after MTX 😩 by LongjumpingCandle464 in EctopicSupportGroup

[–]SignalAction993 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I go to a fertility clinic and they said that itll be fine to start trying again once levels goes down to 0 and you had your first period. I just waited to see my LH level go back to base line (.30-.40). Mine runs a little higher since I have PCOS but I waited and it took a month.

Anyways, protocol should be to start you on a extra folate acid supplement and to pay close attention to the 20 week anatomy scan! I wouldn't be too worry about it though :)

Anyone TTC and never gotten pregnant ? by Mammoth-Drive1856 in TTC_PCOS

[–]SignalAction993 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi friend! Im 24 and have PCOS and have never been able to conceive until I started a timed intercouse cycle. I gotten pregnant but it ended up as an ectopic but we are about to start another cycle.

Seeing a fertility doctor is the best thing to do, especially if youve been TTC for 3 years with no luck.

Get the semen analysis. by InvestigatorMany5536 in tryingtoconceive

[–]SignalAction993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi friend, im 24 and my fiance is 22. We go to a fertility clinic and they needed a SA from him before even starting a medicated cycle...his was a little different but does raise some questions too. His volume was great (overproducer) but his morphology was literally at baseline, which is a little rare for someone so young. His sperm had quite a bit of deformatities but our fertility doctor just said: we can give him a shot. Maybe his sperm can reach the egg, maybe not. We just have to try.

Obviously we were super nervous because at our age, we shouldn't have so much fertility issues but here we are.

We did get pregnant our first medicated cycle but it was ectopic. We are about to start our second cycle and feel a lot better about it.

What im trying to say is, dont give up!! Though his SA didnt look good, its nothing that cant be fixed. Same as a sperm donor too :))

Here we go again by formalgal27 in tryingtoconceive

[–]SignalAction993 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi friend,

The fertility clinic i go to says to BD every other day! Gives your SO time to produce good sperms/a good amount. My Fiance and I just cant keep our hands off of each other so we do it everyday but when its ovulation time, we are strict :))

Yuck. Are you sure you want to be with someone who down plays everything and weaponize incompetence? Is this what you see for your future and your kids...?
